Watching the Sunset
Watching the sunset and I can’t help but wonder if
you’re also watching it. I’m sure it looks a lot different
from your side of town. There’s probably fewer buildings
blocking your view and the light pollution isn’t as bad
as it is here. I’m watching the sunset and I can’t help
but wonder if you’re also thinking about the subtle
yet rapid changes in the clouds across the sky from
orange to pink to purple. It must be prettier where you
are with the green pine trees complementing the
contrasts of the setting sun. I’m watching the sunset and
I can’t help but wonder if you’re also thinking about
me. As the night begins, I can’t help but wish that
I could reach through the stars to you and ask you
if you are feeling the same way I am feeling.
